US Porn Moguls, Chrysler and Satyam

"Two porn moguls including Hustler magazine founder Larry Flynt are seeking a five-billion-dollar bailout from Washington, arguing that the limp US economy has thrown cold water on the adult entertainment industry."-AFP
I guess the porn industry isn't resilient to the economic downturn after all. I had a theory which goes along the line of -sex is like food, thus its staple, thus it would not be affected much by the economic downturn.

Chrysler, what can I say, it's in the SHIT. ItLarry Flynt

is in the worst position among the Detroit car makers. The CFO stated that it needs $7 billion every 45 days to pay its suppliers and creditors. Last year, a single Toyota model, the Camry/Solara midsize car, outsold the entire fleet of Chrysler LLC's passenger cars.
Talk about bad.

Satyam, know as the Enron of India might cause PwC to end up like Arthur Anderson. I don't understand how could the audiors from PwC not detect a $1 Billion fraud done by then Chairman, Mr. Ramalinga Raju. PwC had been auditing Satyam for 7 freaking years. An analyst from Merryl Lynch just took 10 days to find out about its accounting irregularities. Talk about a shitty job done.
In 2007, Mr. Raju was named Entrepreneur of the Year by Ernst and Young. Its a highly prestigious award given by EY.The Legendary Fraudster, Mr Ramalinga Raju

PS: Tax computation is so boring!~

RANTS RANTS!

JERIT (Oppressed People Network)
The Police Cheif Abu Bakar's statement that the reason why they arrested the cyclist were that they were acting to "SAVE" the underage, mistreated, naive, teenagers that were participating.
WOAH Abu Bakar, cyclying sure is dangerous.
Whereas in NS children no older than the ones you try to "SAVED" are being thought how to use machine guns.
Utter rubbish.
This "kids" are so much more aware and I strongly believe they know what they were participating in.
Please, if you wanna come up with an excuse. COME UP WITH SOMETHING BETTER!


Judical Appointments Commission Bill
This supposely new an improve way of choosing judges was suppose to bring INTEGRITY back into our Judical system.
But look, the Prime Minister is given the power to SELECT nominees for the JAC!
What change is that?
Changing the tupperware of a rotten meat to a newer more pleasant looking one does not make the meat any less rotten than it already is.

SIGH!
We want REAL CHANGES!

PS: I'm quite sure working in an Accounting Firm is not what i want. Currently doing an internship with EY tax department and everything is so structured and COST CONSCIOUS!
I need something which gives me autonomy and revenue chasing!
Anyone in Damansara Heights (HELP Area) give me a call for lunch (:

The Hypocrasy of the West

I remembered so vividly when Malaysia was slam for banning short-selling. "Uncompetitive, communist market, discouraging foreign direct investments, etc,"

The recent decision by the states to ban short-selling on 700+ shares just show how bloody hypocrite the west is. "Its for the greater good that we are doing this," they say. Both Republicans and Democratic say the measure is necessary so that the market doesn't fail.
Sigh, isn't democracy and the efficient market all about letting the market decide whether a firm survives or fail?
Now with a 700 billion USD bailout being in mulled, I really wonder where does the US get that amount of money? Already they are the world's largest debtor and now with an extra 700 billion USD deficit, how they hell are they going to finance it? Maybe the oil money from Iraq =P

Even here in Australia "naked" short-selling is being ban.
Lehman Brothers, Merrly Lynch, Bear Sterns, HBOS, and countless other smaller state banks in the States have been casualty so far. AIG might have also became one of the victims of this subprime crisis if not for the US government decision to bail AIG out and provide liquidity to them.

Ah, plenty of fat, arrogant, overpaid bankers are now out of jobs and their wealth wiped out. My heart goes out to all of them, remember bankers, its all about karma.

Picture of the day:
Your future ethical Investment Banker.

ISA???

The UMNO Party is going to the DOGS!
Using the Internal Security Act (ISA) on a reporter? Only in Malaysia can you arrest someone for their safety.

According to our lovely Home Minister Syed Hamid (whom is a total retard) police received information that Sin Chew Daily reporter Tan Hoon Cheng life had been threatened and therefore, instead of putting her under police custody, and having patrols in her neighbourhood, they decide to detain her under ISA? Come on, its bloody ridiculous.
What about the life of Ahmad Ismail? Why not put him under ISA too as the millions and millions of Chinese people would definately be after his blood.

UMNO is fearing for Septermber 16 and they would go to drastic measures to make sure it won't happen.

Advice to the other partys in Barisan Nasional, GET OUT and get out fast.

Dangers of Blogs

The dangers of blogs.
My boss Googles my name, and the other intern's name. I believe it becomes the practice of most firms out there. So thank goodness i have nothing personal or derogatory written down here.
I found out my boss manage to stumble onto one of my colleague's blogs and what was written in there wasn't exactly nice -_-
So guys, please remember to protect your privacy!

I have a question which i hope someone could enlighten me. What makes a book canon to the bible and what doesn't? I.E. why is the book of Enoch not included in the bible? The book of Enoch shows the downfall of Lucifer but non of the books in the bible do. So yes, the burning question is, what makes certain books canon to the bible and certain books non-canon or heresy?

DONE!

I'm finally done with my exams! DONE NO MORE WEEEE~~
So let me tell you about how my week has been other than studies.

I watched Harold and Kumar 2: Escape from Guantanamo Bay and honestly its my first time seeing Punani being display on the big screen, no wonder its rated R.
Perverseness aside, the show was hilarious, and i enjoyed it.

On my way back from the show.
Gus, "Hey Jian, look to your left."
Turns to my left and what I saw was also another first.
A guy giving another guy a blow job, and 3 voyeurs enjoying the show, or waiting for their turn, i can't tell. Its like, they weren't stealthy at all. I have nothing against gays and blow jobs, but please do it somewhere more discreet not at the corner of the park which is so visible. But i guess, that's why Toronto is known as one of the most tolerant places in the world, giving a public blow job WON'T land you in jail.

You see this everywhere you go. Positive Space.

PS:Changed my blog skin, I was going to go for something other than the one supplied by blogspot but i just can't get it right. I keep getting it all messed up. Maybe you someone can teach me. Going to get a chatterbox soon again, in the mean time, use the comments (:

Of Residence Life.

I don't know how could people study here in residence. Just when you are in the mood to study, you look outside and you see people just hanging out in the quad, playing ultimate frisbie and soccer. Its almost impossible to have to will to continue studying. So residence life has almost come to an end. How do i find it? It's been heck of an experience. My dining hall, doesn't it look like something out of Harry Potter movies?
Another hilarious on-going thing in my residence is the problem with washroom. My floor has 2 really smelly people. One of them is an one athlete so he constantly smells like sweat. Another has a bowel problem or something cause her poo smells really horrible, its like the worst smelling poo ever. It takes a day to get rid of the smell. Because of that i use the washroom at the end of the corridor (there are a total of 4 bathrooms). And then at that bathroom there is a war brewing. Girls and guys have separated their bathroom due to complaints about each other's bad habit.This is the guy's bathroom. As you can see it says, "Penises' Washroom".
And the other washroom says, "Vaginas' washrooms (and Jian)" Apparently I got a vagina -_-

Then there is the whole missing food scandal that require Bucci (the don) to take some measures.
"The floor has gone missing, if this persists the Don will take action to stop this from happening in the future"

But it wasn't much of a use.Lol.

I'll also miss people leaving messages on my door.

Gatehouse, Phoenix for life.

Long-distance has been tough for Serena and me. I wish someone would write a book on how to get through it and come up with a magic fix. We are more sensitive and things are harder, but disagreement after disagreement we are still together (: And 2 more months and 10 days till i see you again. Love you.

Of being ripped.

Introducing Ryan Reynolds, not only do I think he is one of Hollywoods most versatile actor, Van Vilder (comedy), Definitely Maybe (Romance) and Blade Trinity (Action) and now he is going to star as Deadpool in X-Men Origins: Wolverine. He is now my official goal during my workouts. I'm almost there =P Hannibal King.
Check out those abs. He does his abs first before any other exercise. At one point, the paparazzi thought he had ab implants, I don't blame them.
He hits the gym 4 times a week each day doing a major muscle-Chest, Back, Arms and Legs.
Not only did he gain 20 pounds (9kg) he cut his body fat from 11% to 3%. Men's Health. Drool girls, drool.

But honestly Asian girls don't like ripped guys. Asian girls likeBad shape. -_-''

Sick -_-

Roar, I'm sick, I hate being sick in such a cold country. Roar, I want my parents and Serena, I'm such a baby.

So the PM decided to cut down the number of Ministers in the Cabinet and require all Minister and Deputy Minister to declare all their assets. My dear, PM its already too late, like they say "nasi sudah menjadi bubur," And will Perak become an Islamic state? WTF, my Grandmother stays there -_-

And now for the Blue Mountain Trip.
We started every enthusiastic, wooooo! Getting up early to head to the Mountain.

But things got a little complicated when our tire got puncture. It was terrible, take a look at the tire. And to make matters worst, our rented car didn't have a JACK to lift the car up and fix the wheel, so we had to wait for a mechanic who took his freaking sweet time to come.

But it was still pretty fun. Snowboard from 3pm till 9pm at night. Snowboarding at night is a whole new experience.

PS:I'm still feeling sick, I want Serena.

Of Skyloft

Last week was my first time snowboarding in Canada, and I was so excited. I expected all the Mountains to be like Whistler In British Columbia. But the mountain-Skyloft was a joke. Imagine groom snow on a BLACK RUN? For those who don't know anything about the colour of the slopes, a Green Circle is the beginner slope, follow by a Blue Square which is an intermediate slope and finally a Black Diamond which is for professionals. It might vary in different countries, E.G. in most of Europe they have a Red which is in between Blue and Black.

So let me tell you about Skyloft. It has only ONE ski lift and all the slopes are groomed. They only difficulty difference between the colours are due to the steepness and not due to obstacles etc. So one can look very good going down a Black Diamond. A friend of mine was Recording us Ski/Snowboard. Doesn't that speak volumes?

But I'm not saying that it sucks, its a very nice place to pick up snowboarding/skiing or improve your skills in jumps lol. The snow is powdery and non-icy and it doesn't hurt when you fall, at least not as much =P
Oh but this wasn't an incident free trip for me, while exciting the ski lift as shown below
I bump into a little girl who ran across to meet her instructor. I tried my very best to stop and minimize the impact. But i guess the size difference is too large. Remember kids, always look both ways before crossing.Naren(left) and Wiebka(middle) have never snowboard before and they did an amazing job for first timers.


Antione(right) is the crazy motherf**ker who video taped us going down the slopes. "I ski in the Alps, this is too easy, makes me look good."

Being the only Snowboarder of the group, I constantly got harass by 6 skiers to hurry up and strap on.

Heading to Blue Mountains this weekend and its said to be at least 10 times better than the last one. They probably would have more ski lifts =P Till next time!

Snow, Edison the Playboy, Tartu

  • Class got canceled on Friday due to snowstorm. Sweet. Never had something like this happened to me before. It was thick!
  • Edison Chen's sexual exploits with various female celebrities were leaked to the public. Gillian Chung, Cecilia Cheung, and Bobo Chan (what a name, Hong Kong actors and their names). Sorry no pictures would be posted as the Hong Kong authorities warn that they would catch all those circulating the pictures. (Go find your porno somewhere else)
  • Lingam Lingam, "I talk rubbish when I drink wine" Come on, you expect us to believe that? We all know that Indians have God-like alcohol tolerance. Drunk on wine??
  • "It looks like me, sounds like me, but i would not say its 100% me" By far the stupidest thing I have ever heard in my entire life.
Decided on an investment strategy for my Project. We are going to invest in oil and gold due to the weakening dollar and banking that the market heads to a full blown recession. (Obviously i prefer the market NOT to be heading to a recession cause then, i would have less spending money and my job opportunities would shrink, its so not worth it for a project)
We are going to hedge the portfolio by buying ETFs in the share market cause the only way the price of gold and oil would drop is if the bull market suddenly appears again.
No other commodities would be invested in as we feel that commodities like cement would fall as the economy heads to a recession and the demand for buildings, e.g. houses would drop.
Any recommendation to further improve this investment strategy would be greatly appreciated.

Being buried in snow, damn it was cold.

@ Tartu, it was crazy. There were at least >80 odd people gathered in such a small place.

Of 420

Learn something new today.
Its called 420. In Toronto on April 20th, thousands and thousands of people would gather at Queen's Park (a park very close to my college) and smoke weed.


Like what the f**k man. I know weed is a very common thing in the western civilization but hey, its not like Toronto is Armsterdam. So it's still illegal to posses weed here, but the authorities just turn a blind eye to it.


So i'm gonna mark my calander on April the 20th and see how it all goes down (:


@Korean Barbeque

I did all the cooking, cause they just ended up burning everything.

The crew.

Till next time.
